Nice work gents! You aren't gonna taint the "glory" by sellin shirts this time, are you?

It would be cool if somebody would open a nice spring/fall crag just on the east side of the pass right off I-90 for the rainshadow effect. It seems like the rain always stops right about the Easton exit? And for many puget sounders, Easton is less than 60 minutes away.
I believe that very thing is occuring, I'm sure deets will be available soon enough...

tick free? never.

Just saw the little bastard crawling up the inside windshield of my truck. Pulled two off my body yesterday and half a dozen more off my shit over the last four days. It's spring time in the Icicle, yeeeehawwww!

Did he live at index with a HUGE personal fortune?
ummmm, yes.

No it was not "passable" by car two weeks ago. There isn't a ton of snow but there was a few feet on the road at Rainy Pass and at least a foot all the way down to Silver Star Creek, not to mention the slides at the spires. I didn't venture too much further west than Rainy Pass...

shit needs some bolts...

blah blah blah. I wasn't speculating, I have also done it both ways, although it's never taken me 6.5 hours to get to the lake, better conditions I assume. I'll take the sled over walking the boring ass road everytime, I guess I'm just fat, old, and weak.

How is saving at least 25% of the approach time to the lake not worth it?

so how was the pass...VVVRRROOOPPP, VVVRRROOOPPP.... yeah monday in the sky valley was pretty choice at some super secret crag!
fun in the sun...theres just no way i can work today... see ya all there 
Wa Pass was great. Snowin hard, 12" of fresh on the ground, opted to ride (board) instead of climb. Way better than I expected. Love that frickin sled... sooo tempting to try from the hairpin to the col...
Secret crag? Not secret? I know. No you don't. It's good. No it's not.

I can't wait to see the reactions of others if there's a total loss of all snow below 7000 feet.
Below 7000? It's above 4000 that there is absolutely no snow...damn inversion shit
friggin depressing... -
You ladies kinda rocked! Not so sure about that rascally rabbit though...
-
I'm not so much talkin about pushin yourself to the falling point, as much as I'm refering to concentrating on "climbing" not "how far can I climb between pro" (falling).
Whatever works safely for you
. Good to hear you're gettin on it

Think success, not failure...

bobby,
For some reason, when I see the word "special" you always come to mind.
Is there any worthwhile snow up there yet? I'm gonna check conditions in my "special" little world Fri-Sat.

But Preiss' own route description is notably different from IB and the route drawn on the photo. I wonder if he has climbed Infinite Bliss, or even returned to the face since IB has been put up...
That's a good question, has he done IB in it's current state? I don't doubt the guy climbed the face, what I do doubt is he did "95%" of the same route.
Using the lines on the pic in R&I is pretty pointless since the line showing the IB route is wrong.
Chiwawa road access?
